I have some existing Security Guard counters that do not comply with
the ABAAS ( Architectural Barriers Act Accessibility Standards ).......This
the Accessibility Standard in-play for a GSA bldg.
Q1): Is a Security Guard counter considered a "service counter" ( i.e. -
they are providing verbal service, ...checking credentials, ...assigning
escorts, etc. ) ?
Q2): Does the existing construction get grandfathered-in until any
type of alteration \ renovation \ replacement takes place ( RE: Section
904.4 ).
Q3): Does a GSA facility get a pass on Accessibility requirements
if the GSA Administration applies for a waiver ( RE: ABAAS, Ch. 1,
Section F103 ) ?
